Foam falling apart..

Is there a part number or a replacement part for this foam piece?? I cleaned my engine and saw that it was deteriorating and falling apart. Its the foam around the front of the stock intake piece..let me know.

If you have a CAI, you don't really need the whole snorkel. Take it off, I did.

Most people who do replace the foam use some form of weather stripping found at your local hardware store.
